Best smartphones

A LG Miracle video has been leaked showing off the Windows Phone smartphone featuring a number of features including panoramic shooting.

Believed to be running Windows Phone 7 and also sporting Windows 8 ready tech like NFC built-in, it's believed the mid-range handset will be making its debut at Mobile World Congress in just a few weeks.

According to Pocket Now the handset will sport a 4-inch NOVA display, a feature which will surely give it the brightest screen of all the Windows Phone handsets available.

On board you've got the fairly standard 1GHz Snapdragon processor as well as 8GB of storage as well as a 5 megapixel rear-snapper that will record 720p video footage.

Most notable is the news that it will probably come with NFC technology which would not only make it fairly futureproof but would also set it up nicely for the transition to Windows Phone 8 later this year.
